Trades and Free Agency - 2022/2023 Trade Deadline Edition

[LeafSteel]

This is a tidy piece of business by Edmonton here.

I like Ekholm but he is 32 and signed long term.. always the risk of the aging decline

But he plays a game that should hold up

 

[I am Canadian]

Brodie isn't a 1st. pairing defender.

We don't have a single 1st pairing defender imo. We have 3 pairs that we consider top 4 worthy.

[BertCorbeau]

That’s a very specific number

 

[jaric1862]

4%...The Barry Trotz special.

 

[rocketman588]

This is the wildest deadline for Leafs fans

This is the wildest deadline in the cap era for the entire league imo

 

[MCR74]

4%? LMAO

I was gonna say... Like WTF?

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Feel like Sandin trade is the odd one out. Going from Engvall's cap hit to Schenn's is a difference of $1,400,000, which I think would've been enough to activate Murray. Have to believe that newfound first is being used in another deal.

 

[SprDaVE]

After losing Engvall it does feel like the Leafs have a strong need for a heavy LW that can give you Engvall levels of value.

Cap space right now is right on the dot of complaint but we also have 9 healthy D so Im sure there's someone there not staying.

 

[Griffin76]

So with all these trades are we still cap compliant? Or do we have to move out exactly 2m?

Also if that's true I'm very curious what kind of trade it is where Sandin wouldn't have worked as a trade chip but a late first will.

 

[Leaffan1991]

So many think Schenn is sitting out but I think he replaces Holl and starts with Rielly

McCabe Brodie
Rielly Schenn
Giordano Lilly

That's a damn good defensive group with some snarl now with the added McCabe and Schenn

it is 2 1sts basically, so the asking price.

The blueline has definitely improved.

 

[SprDaVE]

Knies

He's not joining them for another month at least. It won't be him.

 

[TheDoldrums]

Ideally I'd like to flip Gustaffson and Boston 1st for the best LW we can get.

 

[LeafChief]

ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?!

 

[GrizzGreen]

Honestly not a bad deal for either side. Good hockey trade.

2023 first is an overpayment when they lose in the first round, otherwise I like it

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

League gonna scrutinize Minnesota now I guess.
